Community Arts


Many of the People we support are involved in a range of Community and Arts Programmes including music, dance, drama, visual arts, art production and a broad range of creative activities. This results in various productions and exhibitions on a group and individual basis 

Across all sectors and programme areas, creative arts are available. A number of services have a particular focus on fostering individual talents in the arts.
